With this form of technology, it allows for us to preserve their work and the manipulatives that we use in school. It has made it a lot easier for them to manipulate printouts used to teach vocabulary without them tearing. \r\nWhen we learn about new topics in science, the students are able to touch and paste the visual more than one time. The lamination is the key to preserving these lessons that can be used for years to come. \r\nThe mose exciting part for them is when we Laminate their pictures and they are able to use their pictures during lessons. For example, when we do a question of the week, the students are able to use the picture of themselves to vote for their opinion. Without them being laminated, pictures would simply tear after the first use. That is why we are very thankful for your role in making learning more practical.","fullyFundedDate":1758834846907,"projectUrl":"project/bright-minds-lasting-lessons-a-laminat/9745477/","projectTitle":"Bright Minds, Lasting Lessons: A Laminator for TK","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Garcia","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp259355_272x272.png?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1522524324384","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/259355"},{"teacherId":259355,"projectId":9684628,"letterContent":"My students reaction was pure magic when they received the items!

It has been so amazing to see the students working together to build robots that they then use to act out different stories that they come up with. Their hand muscles are continuing to get stronger each time they use the toy drill and they now know how to tighten and loosen the bolts themselves! They feel so accomplished when they create something new and that sense of pride they are feeling is irreplaceable. The magnetic tiles have been such a fun addition to our science center as it has allowed my students to explore the materials there is new and fun ways. \r\n\r\nThank you for providing my students with these materials and helping me to give them experiences that support their natural curiosity in the world around them.","fullyFundedDate":1760369903419,"projectUrl":"project/tk-scientists-in-action-learning-throug/9706761/","projectTitle":"TK Scientists in Action: Learning Through Exploring & Building","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Moss","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp2406453_orig.jpg?crop=1338,1338,x20,y494&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1757739946814","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/rmoss"},{"teacherId":259355,"projectId":9511579,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your generousity and for fully funding my From Senses to Friendship class project.

They were well aware that from now on we could print the pictures and paintings that we have been waiting to do. \r\nWe were able to immediately print pictures of them riding their dinosaur pet that they created using different art tools that allowed them to express themselves in how they visualized it to be. They were so proud of themselves to see the end product hang on our wall. Many never thought that they could incorporate their image to the visual art pieces that they created, so it makes the project more meaningful to them. Seeing themselves as the center piece of the classroom allows them to take ownership and develop pride of their academic learning. \r\nWe will continue to print many of their projects in our next unit that will allow them to visually see the many ways that they could use to solve problems. So far, I have conducted these lessons in order for them the practice using the skills in their daily lives.

Just this week I was blown away to see how a group of my littles ones worked together to solve the problem of trying to keep their structure stable. While a 1 held the structure stable with his hands the other walked around and realized that it needed a base to give it balance! Only then does our the other friend come along and add a zig zag down hill structure to the existing one. The end result was amazing. \r\nWhen all of the materials arrived the children were ecstatic as they jumped up and down. Those wide eyes and smiles are priceless! They were quick to make plans as to how they will want to use them in their classroom. I really enjoy watching them have more of a variety of toys that enhance their creativity. They are really taking advantage of the toys that you have helped bring to their classroom, and so will the future students. \r\nOnce again, without your support none of this would be possible.
